Red Bull team owner Dietrich Mateschitz reiterated his unhappiness with the current generation of tires after the Spanish Grand Prix.

Following the race, which saw most driver make four pit stops and a total of 77 take place, Mateschitz told Autosport: “Everyone knows what happens here. This has nothing to do with racing anymore. This is a competition in tire management.

“There is no more real qualifying and fighting for the pole, as everyone is just saving tires for the race,” he added.

“If we would make the best of our car we would have to stop eight or ten times during a race, depending on the track.”
